2002 Pontiac Trans Am

The Pontiac Trans Am was a car manufactured under General
Motorsʼ (GM) Pontiac Division from 1969 - 2002. Pontiac, which was
disbanded by GM in 2010, was considered the performance division of the
company and gave America great cars such as the Firebird, GTO, LeMans,
Bonneville and Trans Am.

In 1967, Pontiac debuted their “pony car” called the Firebird (the same
year, Chevrolet debuted a similar called called the Camaro). The Firebird
had characteristic pony car styling and was available with a variety of
engines and transmissions. In 1969, the Firebird was offered with a
$795.00 upgrade package called the “Trans Am Performance and
Appearance Package” which was an upgraded engine and exterior
badging. This was to honor the racing circuit called “Trans Am” that
debuted in 1966 and was best known for its competition among American
V8 cars such as the Mustang, Camaro, Barracuda, Cougar, Javelin,
Challenger and Firebird.

The Trans Am package was available until the cars demise in 2002 and
continued to offer higher levels of performance through its lifetime such as
an upgraded suspension, upgraded handling characteristics and a larger
horsepower engine. It also included modifications such as a different style
hood, spoilers, fog lights, wheels and graphics. If you are a child of the
1970ʼs, you remember the carʼs fame in the movie “Smokey and The
Bandit.”

This car is the final year of production. It has the rare convertible option
and has minimal miles on the odometer.
